Hello
Back on the rails this year and the second trip I’m planning (thank you pass sale) is Sicily, (TRAIN ON A BOAT!), dawdle up through Italy, over the moutains into Switzerland, swim in some lakes/climb some mountains and mooch home.
Just wondering if anyone out there has done that route and has any recommendations or advice?
Might be the last rail trip the teenager will do with me, sniff.
Thanks
Sarah

Hello
A very popular route is: Milano - Tirano - Bernina - Albula. You can continue to Andermatt - Brig or Lucerne. Reservations are not mandatory if you take regional trains instead of the Bernina Express or Glacier Express trains.
You can check the validity of the pass in Switzerland here:

Hello
Thanks for the reply
I would happily do the Bernina Pass again, we loved riding in the open car, Glacier Express done on our first trip ever so wondering about a more dawdling route using Gotthard or would I just be disapointed I didn’t do Bernina?
Cheers

I didn’t know that you have already traveled on the Bernina and Glacier Express lines, I would choose other routes to discover other regions of Switzerland.
If you take the Gotthard route, travel on the old line with the Interregio trains and not through the new base tunnel. You have also other panoramic lines, for example Lucerne - Interlaken and Interlaken - Montreux.
